Re: Cabot Financial/Train2Game.

Hi, Just wanted to get some advice, I have pretty much fell in the same trap as you guys, and I am really lost and confused about how to get out of it! I started a train 2 game course back in about august 2014, (This was when I was suffering with really bad social anxiety issues and being a carer for my mum) The sales man (Who was very convincing) Came around to my house sold me this course, said that I was wasting my talent and skills at uni. (I was really ill at this point and anything would have made me feel better and managed to make me feel useful for once and that i was actually good at something) in which he left. I was given a few bits of materials but didn't get booklets ect. for about a week or so. and now I'm kind of sick of paying for something that I am not doing and don't want to do anymore. I'm trying to move out of my parents house and into my own place and kind of need all the money I can get. They have lowered my payments to £60 just because they wasn't getting anything else out of me and I refuse to pay the full amount (Just because I don't have the money.)

I would really appreciate any help or advice given to me to get this closed even if I don't get a refund just to cancel the course would be great.

Thank you

I will be taking them to the small claims court when I get a bit of money behind me.

Re: Cabot Financial/Train2Game.

This has been going on for far too many years now, CAB / TS must have hundreds of complaints.

Has anyone actually been through any court proceedings with them ?

It seems we're about all in the same nightmare here.

Can I please advise you all, at the least, to contact Citizens Advice Consumer Services to report your experiences so that the information can be passed on to Trading Standards. At some point this operation needs to be properly investigated and it will only happen if there are enough cases to support it.

Hold fast. Do not be threatened. Do not give up.

Re: Cabot Financial/Train2Game.

Hi, I am new on here but really glad I found this thread. My son started the game developer programme as he's under 18 and has no job I am paying for it, money has got tight and I can no longer pay for this. I contacted career finance 4 trade skills who when I told them I am in financial difficulty they sent me a letter asking me for my wage and out goings. I have done this through email and also asked for all correspondence to be through email, they have totally ignored this and are ringing constantly. What do I do from here do I send this form off, my son no longer wants to do it as he's seen the stress its causing me, please if anyone can advise me I am not eating or sleeping and can't see a way out thanks x

Re: Cabot Financial/Train2Game.

Thanks. & I took the course with them because it was described as a sure 'in' to the games industry.

Re: Cabot Financial/Train2Game.

You need to move away from lloyds as they charge a £1 per day on there overdraft fees go with First Direct. They offer £100 when you switch to them and a £250. Fee free and interest free overdraft.Vodafone can be quite expensive have a look at the skillstrain under scrutiny on google. CDF's adress is. Career Developement Finance Ltd PO Box 815 Luton LU1 1WZ. They are terrible what made you take the course out with them?.

If anyone is good with legal letters and could make anything from my bullet points in my previous post to form a letter for me. I'm actually terrified of writing the wrong thing and have it come back on me. :/
